So, I plan on buying a new pre-built computer (don't argue that I should build my own, I have no time and no patience to do that, also afraid I'll damage expensive parts) and I don't know if I should get the Intel stock cooler or a liquid cooler. The processor I choose was a Intel Core i7-4790 Processor (4x 3.60GHz/8MB L3 Cache) and I don't know if an air cooler is the appropriate cooler for this processor. I am NOT overclocking the CPU, I'll be playing games such as Minecraft, Battlefield 4, and Watch Dogs. If someone could help me with this decision that would be much appreciated
 


The included cooler should do just fine. Monitor your temperatures and make sure that it is staying below 65C.
